    RAID-5 expansion

    Hi daFranze, Ok we will be aware of that. I have another question, can we add a new disk smaller than the existing disk in the RAID5 configuration? Thanks

    RAID-5 expansion

    hmmmm... from the SDS manual it says it can but there is not parity on the added disk. it also just concatenates it. is this safe?

    RAID-5 expansion

    Hi Gurus, I'm planning to expand a filesystem that has a RAID 5 protection using SDS. What things should I consider before doing the expansion? What are the limitation of expanding a RAID 5? Can I just expand and expand a RAID5? Thanks gurus!

    Solstice Disk Suite

    Hi, in the scenario above... If I edit /etc/lvm/md.tab then do the metainit -a can I do a mount on all of my filesystem? will metainit erase/format my data in the disk? Thanks

    Solstice Disk Suite

    Hi, I'm not really familiar with SDS. I've read the user guide of SDS and I could not find commands that i'm looking for. here is a "wild" scenario... for example the server is running fine. the file system /u01 is residing on an External Storage through SAN using SDS. at one point the root...

    Solstice Disk Suite

    Hi daFranze, Actually we are not moving the data from one host to another. We just move the data from one storage to another. what is the equivalent IBM command for varyoffvg, exportvg, varyonvg and importvg in SDS? Thanks

    Solstice Disk Suite

    Hi gurus! We plan to migrate a server from one storage to another. The filesystem uses Solstice Disk suite to do host mirroring and raid. I'm not familiar with disk suite. Can anyone give me a document on how to do this? We will use remote mirroring to copy the data from storage to another...

    Hi gurus! I ran df -k on one server there is one line that looks like this /export/home/home_it/roy 2052870 1724428 307914 85% /home/roy instead of /dev/dsk/c4t0d3s1 8695492 7659910 948628 89% /db/dbars/admin what kind of filesystem is this? how will I know which disk is...

    daFranze, If I use ifconfig to change the MAC address and the system reboot will the changes be in effect after reboot? or should I add something to rc.d. which file? Thanks

    Floodng problem

    daFranze, how can I make sure that the MAC I will enter is unique? dbase77, I'll try that. Thanks
